SAFETY For Your Own Safety Read Instruction Manual Before Operating This Equipment The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.
Safety Instructions For Power Tools 9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD for the charger. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Conductor size should be in accordance with the chart below. The amperage rating should be listed on the motor or tool nameplate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords if they become damaged.
CHARGING SAFETY 1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS and warnings on the battery and charger before charging the battery. 2. CHARGE ONLY USING THE SUPPLIED CHARGER AND BATTERY. Do not use with other batteries, chargers or drills. 3. DO NOT EXPOSE BATTERY OR CHARGER TO WET OR RAINY CONDITIONS. Moisture greatly increases the risk of a shock hazard. 4. DO NOT TOUCH BATTERY POLES with any conductive materials.

Tighten the Allen® screw. Refer to the Grizzly catalog or website for other types of blades suitable for a wide variety of materials.
DETAIL SANDER OPERATION Detail Sander Transfer the battery pack to the sander. The battery snaps into the base the same as the drill. Install the desired sandpaper grit onto the triangular sanding pad. Please consult the Grizzly catalog or website for ordering information for sandpaper. The sandpaper attaches by means of a hook and loop material. Be certain the replacement sandpaper purchased is of this type.
OPERATING TIPS AND MAINTENANCE Operating Guides and Tips Maintenance Avoid overloading the drill, sander or jig saw. Do not apply excessive pressure to the tool while using. If the speed drops abnormally, decrease pressure immediately. When drilling, if the bit stops abruptly or becomes blocked, release the trigger at once. Reverse the direction to free the drill bit. Your cordless power tool will give you hundreds of hours of operation time before ever needing service.
